City Orthodontics Offers Free Consultations for Children's First Orthodontic Evaluation at Age 7
North York, Canada - August 15, 2026 / City Orthodontics /
Early evaluation can catch bite and jaw issues while they are simpler to address, says North York orthodontist Dr. Pablo Kimos.
NORTH YORK, ON - City Orthodontics, an orthodontic practice located at Yonge Street and York Mills in North York, is encouraging parents throughout Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area to schedule their child's first orthodontic visit at age 7, consistent with long-standing guidance from the Canadian Association of Orthodontists and the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO).
At age 7, most children present with a combination of baby and permanent teeth, and their first permanent molars have typically erupted - providing a child orthodontist in North York with sufficient clinical information to identify crowding, spacing, or bite concerns at an early stage, often before those issues become apparent to parents. An initial evaluation is an assessment, not an automatic entry into treatment: many children simply return for periodic monitoring as their teeth and jaws continue to develop.
When early, or Phase 1, treatment is indicated, it can guide jaw growth and create space for incoming permanent teeth, potentially reducing the complexity of treatment required later. City Orthodontics offers complimentary, no-obligation consultations for these early evaluations.
The practice notes that a dentist's referral is not required, and parents should not wait until age 7 if they observe potential signs of concern - including early or late loss of baby teeth, difficulty chewing, mouth breathing, prolonged thumb sucking, or teeth that appear crowded or out of position. Families searching for an orthodontist in Toronto have access to these evaluations without a referral at the North York location.
"An early check-up is one of the simplest things a parent can do for their child's smile. In fact, we try not to start treatment that early - we're watching how everything is developing so that, if something needs attention, we can address it at the right time," said Dr. Pablo Kimos, orthodontist and founder of City Orthodontics.
City Orthodontics provides early evaluations and treatment for children alongside care for teens and adults at its North York location, serving families across Toronto, Markham, Thornhill and Scarborough.
